All the staff at Bourne’s have been compassionate & supportive during this most difficult time. Communication every step of the way has been excellent along with the much needed helping hand. I cannot recommend Bourne’s strongly enough. Many thanks to you all.

When bournes came to collect my mum from her nursing home I felt such a relief to see Ben I knew instantly she would be in good hands and well looked after. He is so professional and shows so much respect to my mum and our families. I cannot thank Bournes enough for everything they have done for my family. Catherine is always so helpful and nothing is too much trouble. They do truly understand what families are going through and they give that personal touch at a very sad and difficult time.

Bournes Funeral Directors, advertise as a family run business in Sittingbourne and boy does it show. From the first phone call to walking into their premises, I found them to be polite, professional, very caring and attentive and nothing was ever too much trouble. Losing my Dad was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to deal with, and Bournes staff took all the worry away. From Susan the Celebrant, through to Ben and all the team at Bournes, everyone made my Dads last journey respectful and memorable. Although now for me or if you’ve ever been to a cremation before, I found the bowing of heads as a sign of respect for my Dad brought me to tears. Everything was perfect for my Dad and he would have been proud. Thank You Bournes for everything you did for me and my Dad and I sincerely hope your company gets the recognition it so clearly deserves. Thank You Lyndon
